The element that gains electrons, becomes reduced.
While the one which loses electrons, becomes oxidized.
In this equation,
CH₃OH + Cr₂O₇²⁻---- --> CH₂O + Cr³⁺.
By balancing the equation, we will get:
3CH₃OH + Cr₂O₇²⁻ + 8H⁺ --> 3CH₂O + 2Cr³⁺ + 7H₂O
Here the oxidation state of Cr changes from +6 to +3 that is it is being reduced thus serving as a oxidizing agent while other element retain their charges.
Here Cr₂O₇²⁻ is reduced while CH₃OH is oxidized.
So Cr₂O₇²⁻ serves as a oxidizing agent, while CH₃OH serves as reducing agent .
In 1869 Russian chemist DIMITRI MENDELEEV started the development of the periodic table,arranging chemical elements by atomic mass. He predicted the discovery of other elements and left spaces open in his periodic table for them. HOPE THIS HELPSS HAVE A GREAT DAY <333
Answer:
Specific heat capacity
Explanation:
Heat capacity is defined as amount of the heat supplied or absorbed by the given mass of the material so to make a unit change in the material's temperature.
The SI unit is Joule / kelvin (J/K).
It is an extensive property.
While,
<u>Specific heat capacity is the amount of heat absorbed or lost by one gram of mass of the substance to raise it's temperature by 1°C or 1 K
</u>
<u>It is an intensive property. </u>
